Problem starting up servlet-examples & jsp-examples

[K Krishna Kishore]

I am getting the following exception when I start my tomcat server. I understand that the server is starting up fine but I am not able to load the servlet-examples app that comes with TOMCAT. I am using Tomcat 5.5.16 w/ java 1.5_06
